Thank you for all of the amazing names!!! I have listed my favorites from the suggestions above… (a few with notes)

[name]Alistair[/name] - how do you pronounce this?
[name]Leo[/name] - I like this as a nn, but I don’t like [name]Leonard[/name]/o. Are there any other names this could be a nn for?
[name]Henry[/name] - [name]LOVE[/name] it, but it is too popular
[name]Tad[/name] - love this as a nn
[name]Duncan[/name]
[name]Jude[/name]
[name]George[/name]
[name]Arthur[/name]
[name]Rafferty[/name]
[name]Theodore[/name] - my favorite out of all of the suggestions!
[name]Harry[/name] - would like as a nn … maybe for [name]Harrison[/name]
[name]Thaddeus[/name]
[name]Hamish[/name]
[name]Phineas[/name]
[name]Lincoln[/name]
[name]Jasper[/name]

Now, for the real challenge… Make me some sib-sets! :slight_smile: Out of my girls names and boys names, which 3 or 4 names work best together. (I’m not pregnant, but naming my unborn children is fun!)

Here’s a recap of the girls names…
[name]Magnolia[/name]
[name]Elspeth[/name] nn [name]Birdie[/name]
[name]Lavender[/name]
[name]Luella[/name]
[name]Beatrix[/name]
[name]Camilla[/name] nn [name]Millie[/name]
[name]Lilac[/name] / [name]Lila[/name]
[name]Virginia[/name] nn… not sure?

Thanks again!

You seem to like floral/natural names, so I’ll second [name]Forest[/name], and add [name]Cedar[/name] (knew a guy with this name), and [name]Ash[/name].

The rest seem to be sort of vintage southern, so I’ll just mention that the southern signers of the Constitution included men named [name]Charles[/name], [name]Hugh[/name], and [name]Pierce[/name]. Southern signers of the Declaration of Independence included men named [name]Lyman[/name], [name]Francis[/name], [name]Carter[/name], and [name]Arthur[/name]. Many southern families also use family names as first names.
